Quinn said Amazon has since changed its explanation for terminating the contract to blaming Allen for making statements saying that the #MeToo movement should not become a witch hunt.

Allen's right. This thing shouldn't become a witch hunt.

Just look at his 'love life'. That explains everything.

He said the Metoo movement shouldnt become a witch hunt, and thats enough for Amazon to terminate his contract?

A very sad commentary on contemporary western society.

Whether Woody Allen violated terms of a contract is for their arbitration team to determine.

Nothing else in the article is relevant.

the company protected itself after Allen made "public comments that at a minimum were insensitive to the #MeToo movement."

Blasphemy!!! How dare he be insensitive to the #Metoo movement??? This is a violation of the highest moral code we have!!! Doesn't he know that he's not allowed to be anything short of reverent toward the almighty #Metoo movement???

First and foremost an accomplished and gifted film-maker. Reputedly morally flawed. Still a virtuoso writer/director.
